We use to go to Wing Fong on Jerome Avenue and Burnside.........We had Weinstein's Deli down the block. For special occasions , from graduation to birthdays, we went to Yonkers to Patricia Murphy's - I could still taste their popovers!

Many Sundays we ate at Patsy's on the corenr of Westchester near Hugh Grant Circle.

That corner was always bustling with shoppers and commuters going up and down the
EL stairs to catch the number 4 train. I left the neighborhood when I was 13 in 1974. I don't recall Wing Fong. If memory serves me right there was also a Jewish bakery between Davidson and Grand ave on Burnside. Don't recall the name but I remember those delicious cheese knishes filled with blueberries. The scent has never left my memory. There was also Rico's Pizzeria on Burnside and Harrison. For lunch we'd get 2 slices and a large coke for .40 cents. What a great place to grow up.
